Farin Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I would have thought Pet Sounds would be a sure candidate for the Top Ten, since it's routinely in the top ranks of "Best Albums of all time"* lists, but it wasn't even close. * no matter that I hate list titles like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Yeah, a little too predictable, to be honest. I would have thought the CCR, Janis Joplin and Jefferson Airplane would have made it. Also, the only artist of color on that list is Hendrix. Where's Otis Redding, The Temptations or Aretha Franklin? I was happy to see The Band, CSN and Bob Dylan make it, regardless.

MindCrime Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 I was happy to see The Band, CSN Those two were a surprise to me and a good one. They both have a song in my PTT, while these other big name artists do not. I look forward to the complete list, when it's available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 I had the Hendrix album until someone stoled it. The whole album was just awesome and one of my favorite all time albums I've ever owned. Other then the ranking, not to many surprises. Congratulations Fin and thank you Farin and Lucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
